When I purchased this dress, I admit I was a little hesitant. The model made it look damn good, so I figured what the hell. However, after a few uses, I think I would not have pulled the trigger.

Sizing:
I purchased this in a medium, and would have to say it is pretty true to size. The dress fit snugly, and supported my breasts quite well. There was no smooshed chest effect that some gowns can have. When it came to the length, it went to the bottom of my, well bottom, kind of as indicated in the picture. That said, I would say this is one of the best things about the dress: the true to size factor. That is not saying much. The one thing that I did not really like was the fact that the picture made the model appear to have more of an hour glass figure with the purple. I have a similar frame, and did not feel that was as recognizable upon personal use.

Color & Quality:
The color was a little darker than expected, but I was not too upset with that. As for the quality, it is okay. It is made of nylon and has some pretty attractive embroidery throughout it. However, after a couple of uses, some of the stitching began to give way.

Care:
When I wash items like this, I always use a lingerie bag, and that is what I would recommend. Over time the dress got a little wear and tear in the embroidery stitching, so I would not say this will last forever, and is what you pay for.

Sex Appeal:
It certainly has its share of sex appeal, but not enough that I would purchase it if I could go back in time. If I had to put a number on it, I'd say 3/3.5 out of 5.

Pricing:
The price was reasonable, given the quality of the item. If you are able to get a few uses out of it with proper care, you should be in good shape.
